Actually Quote by Greg Graffin

“I call myself a naturalist as opposed to an atheist, but there are different styles. Some people just like to be close to nature. And some people actually worship nature, which is too wishy-washy because - like a lot of religious believers - they don't depend on facts.” quote by Greg Graffin — Download Open image
